Answer:

Watch for any offense that's a misdemeanor and not an infraction. Tickets will generally have an "M" or "I" circled to indicate whether the ticket is a misdemeanor or an infraction. If it's an M, then you should talk to  a lawyer because it's not a regular ticket. Misdemeanors carry jail time, and can lead to increased penalties for future arrests. Some offenses are "wobblers" that can be charged either way.

Our goal is to get misdemeanors reduced to an infraction, because infractions don't create a criminal record or require jail time.
